Since this property is a LIHTC property that might not have a project based rental assistance contract, it is likely that it either has no waiting list or the waiting list is shorter than properties with rental assistance. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
Hana Gardens provides senior housing while honoring the area’s Japanese heritage. The community has two four-story buildings and a single-story stone-faced former florist shop that was preserved and transformed into a resident community room. A second community room opens onto an outdoor courtyard garden with raised planters, a picnic area and benches. Other features include a fitness room, a computer lab, laundry facilities and bike storage. Half of the homes are fully accessible to people with disabilities. The El Cerrito Senior Center is conveniently located on the ground level—with transit, and safe bicycle and pedestrian paths nearby.
Hana Gardens also has a beautiful public plaza honoring the Japanese influence on the flower industry, with historical narrative panels and a timeline along the sidewalk. Eden partnered with the Japanese American Citizens League and the El Cerrito Historical Society on this project.
Because Hana Gardens participates in HUD's HOME program for rental housing and the LIHTC program, at least some of the units in this property are set aside for households earning 60% or less of the AMI and rents are capped at the local FMR and in many cases much lower. For a HOME project of this size, some of the units are set aside for households at or below 50% AMI with a corresponding lower rent cap. As this property appears not to have a project-based subsidy or any other Federal assistance, you likely will have to pay your own rent, albeit, at a lower rent amount thanks to the HOME and LIHTC programs. Since this property participates in the HOME and LIHTC programs, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
